Triple Love

Which means it’s another day of mystery, with a capital M. This mystery is one of the biggies, of course. Uber Catholic to boot {we Catholics love a good mystery!}. One that really, we are not truly meant to fully figure out – because as soon as you think you have; you’ve probably fallen into presumption (with a capital P) and are not on target to boot.

So, here’s what we do know, ok, let’s be more precise, what I think about this day: it’s a feast of love, really. How’s that? Well, God the Father so loved everything, but even more so,us, that he gave us his Son, and the love between those two was so immeasurably great that it begat it’s own third “person”: the Holy Spirit. Thus those three began the “begatting” that we read in the Old Testament (pages and pages of it, right?) and that, when we are doing it right, here on earth, begets us each other.

The Trinity was and is (and ever will be) the prime, premier, example of how to love – well and truly. And that right there, is enough mystery for my little brain for, um, the rest of my life. Which is really, of course, part of it’s charm. Mind blowing charm and goodness. Something to celebrate. And that’s why it’s a feast day: was then, is now, and will be forever. Amen.

Jen, mentioned nothing of The Feast of the Most Holy Trinity? Or my take on it….and if its just that it didn’t go in my direction…stick w/ the sermon! this is just my wandering mind and thus it could fall into error…disregard, or at least take it with a middle aged old mom grain of salt (me)…….yikes.
